Ben Carson admits making up West Point story

His campaign admitted the lie.


"And on Friday, Mr. Carson acknowledged that he had never been formally accepted by the prestigious military academy at West Point, despite numerous statements in books and in public that implied that he had." Originally Posted by WombRaider

"Carson never explicitly wrote that he had applied for admission to West Point, although that was the clear implication of his claim to have received an offer of a "full scholarship," a point that POLITICO’s initial report should have made clear."

But, they didn't. They had to LIE.

It's from your own link! They're already having to walk it back.

So do you idiots think Carson was lying when he admitted he lied? Or did the dreaded MSM make it all up to make Little Black Brain Surgeon look like a complete dipshit?

And Politico was forced to walk back its story:

Not trying to deflect but when did the media start doing due diligence on black men running for high office;

I was born in Hawaii...
I was not raised a Muslim...
...my Muslim faith.
I never claimed to be born in Kenya...
...born in Kenya...(according to his first autobiography)
I was in the top of my law school classes at Harvard...
Never published one single article for the Harvard Law Review...
My wife is not a man.. (maybe he did say this one time...it's entirely possible and should be checked out)
My daughter is not a wookie (Okay, he did say this....we think)
I am not a socialist...
...I went to the socialist conference in Chicago in the 80s.
I am not friends with a terrorist.
I am friends with Bill Ayres who was a terrorist but he is not now.

Why were not these fact checked as well? This is an indictment on our media, or should I say your media.

FYI, when I was a senior in high school I applied to the Naval Academy. I had to travel for the psych eval, the physical, and the initial paperwork....I didn't get in. Glad to get that off my chest. Whew!

Don't you remember JD when Obama was caught in lies in his book the media quickly accepted that

1) The people (like the woman he dated) were "composites"
2) The story was a "composite" or a "dream"
3) The story was told to him by someone and he was just relaying it

and

Obama may or may have not written the book

BUT....

IT IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRATIONAL! So who cares?
